During the F1 Hungarian Grand Prix, Lando Norris faced criticism for a contentious team order from McLaren that required him to let teammate Oscar Piastri pass for the win. Norris initially took the lead after an early pit stop but was instructed to return the position to Piastri with three laps to go, a decision that has sparked debate regarding team strategy. Martin Brundle suggested that Norris should have complied with team orders earlier to allow more time for a potential overtake. McLaren's team principal Andrea Stella explained the strategic reasoning behind their decisions, emphasizing the extreme track conditions. Ferrari's team principal Frederic Vasseur commented on the situation, noting that while McLaren's decision was understandable, it may have cost them crucial points against championship leader Max Verstappen. In the end, Norris defended the team's strategy, stating that he lost the opportunity to win due to a poor start rather than the team orders.
